The
authors of Masonic books come from many walks of life. Many of them are
Masons and have direct knowledge of their material, while others are not
Masons and rely upon extensive research. As a result, opinions and insights
vary considerably among them, and a wide reading of various authors produces
the most reliable and satisfying understanding of the many aspects of
Freemasonry. Further information on the books they wrote can often be found
in the Masonic Books section.
